Answer:

The correct answers are:

11. brave – braver –  bravest

12. distinct – more distinct – most distinct

13.  bad – worse – worst

14. high – higher –  highest

15. active – more active – most active

16.  long – longer – longest

17. large – larger –  largest

18. square – squarer – squarest

19. beautiful – more beautiful – most beautiful

20. eternal – absolute

21. practical – more practical – most practical

22.  lazy – lazier – laziest

23. empty – emptier – emptiest

24. fat – fatter - fattest

Explanation:

We use comparative to compare similarities or differences between people and things.

We make comparative adjectives when we add the termination <em>-er</em> to the end of the word (for one-syllable words), or we use the form <em>more + adjective</em> (for two, three, or more syllable adjectives).

We use superlative to describe the extreme quality of things or persons.

We form the superlative when we add the termination <em>-est</em> at the end of an adjective or by using the construction <em>most + adjective</em>.

An absolute adjective represents a non-gradable adjective that does not have comparative or superlative, so it cannot be graded.

For example: dead, unique, ideal, eternal, sufficient, whole, etc.

Why is Marvels Loki the best villain? <br> Give a detailed response.
madreJ [45]

The reason Loki could be perceived as the "best" villain in the Marvel universe is that he always knows what to do. In any situation he has proven to have a back up plan. Loki is a very smart individual, and would most likely outsmart any others in war. He is also an extremely determined fellow. In Avengers infinity war, the opening scene, he tried multiple times to foil Thanos' goal. He may have failed every single time but it shows that he will try to get what he wants until that thing is gone.
